Sarah (126 KP) rated Dream It. List It. Do It!: The 43things.com Guide to Creating Your Own Life List in Books

Feb 25, 2019

I liked this book, but I have to admit, I did expect something more. For the most part, it's mostly lists of suggested goals - grouped into different types - taken from the old 43things.com website.

There's very little in the way of suggestions on how to actually achieve your goals, or anything of any real substance.

I think the main use of the book comes as a result of the fact that the 43things.com website no longer exists; were it still around, then it would be easy enough to go online and browse for ideas for your own list; as it is, this is a helpful reference to begin your own life list - but really, nothing more than that.

It is very well organized, and covers every important aspect of a relationship (2 more)

It is simultaneously rational, but filled with hope.

Relevant and applicable to every situation

This book got me through the worst breakup of my life

"I simply cannot recommend this book enough. It is a 'self-help' psychology book I suppose, but it is so much more than that. It is funny, witty, and more than anything: helpful. Whether you are in a relationship (happy or struggling), or recently single, this book will help you learn things about yourself you've never known. I hope this helps you our with 'your favorite Martian,' or 'your favorite Venusian.'" -from my Bookstagram account, rorythereader

Roxanne (13 KP) rated The single parent's handbook in Books

Nov 14, 2018

2.5 stars! I was going to give this 2 stars until I got to the end. I just found this so depressing...I am currently pregnant with my first child and I will be a single parent...my first thought was help! I need support! So I picked this up from the library. I must say...if this is what single parenthood is going to be like I am not looking forward to it. There seemed to be no upside to any downsides listed on every page...very one sided.
I gave a 0.5 star for the list of resources at the end of the book, very helpful websites and phone numbers.

The Guard (The Selection, #2.5)

Book Rating

By now you will be quite familiar with Aspen Leger. The man who first broke America's heart and the main reason she signed up for the selection in the first place. But who is the man behind the sweet words and tender kisses? The man who thought he had nothing to offer.

"We know you're strong, but accepting help is its own kind of strength."
- Happily Ever After (The Guard) - page 244

There are several scenes that overlap from The Elite in this novella. It was enlightening to see these scenes unfold through Aspen's perspective. Very helpful overall to learn more about his character. It is perfect to read AFTER The Elite.

Its utilisation of teamwork is key. Its loot in-game makes every game a different challenge. Character skins are unique and differ with each character. (0 more)

Bad teammates makes experience bad so would recomend playing with a group of people you trust and can rely on. (0 more)

It's a great passtime

This game is a battle royal in an ever changing world. Each game brings its own challenges be it; your teammates teamwork, what loot you find, be it where you drop. Some players on your team are helpful some are straight up useless but means changing game strategy to more cautious. Would recommend to someone else but the warning is play with your friends that you can rely on.

Hey Smashbombers,

I just wanted to add another quick reminder about our linking feature. You can easily link related items to each other, so that we can all discover new items!

I've just spent some time linking movie prequels/sequels and movies based on video games, why not link your favourites too?

It's really easy to do, simply go to one of the relevant items, for example: Batman Begins, click 'EDIT' scroll down to 'RELATED ITEMS' and search for the other item(s): The Dark Knight & The Dark Knight Rises - then hit 'SAVE' and the items will be linked, just like the picture example below!

Hopefully you will find this feature helpful,
Happy Reviewing & Linking!
Ollie.
